Omar Bogle's second-half strike has helped seal Cardiff City's comeback against Norwich City and close to within one point of Championship leaders Wolverhampton Wanderers.

The Canaries, who had failed to win in their previous seven outings, had chances to take the lead during the opening period, with Grant Hanley seeing a header saved and Josh Murphy skying a left-footed shot.

However, the visitors did break the deadlock before the interval when Marco Stiepermann struck a low shot from the edge of the box to net his first goal for the East Anglian club.

That lead would last only four minutes into the second half, when Joe Ralls scored from the spot following Ivo Pinto's rash challenge on Sean Morrison.

Just after the hour mark, Cardiff edged in front when Junior Hoilett's lofted effort found the top corner of Angus Gunn's net.

The Bluebirds should have been further ahead when Joe Ralls had another chance to score from the penalty spot. However, his effort was easily saved by Gunn.

However, Cardiff wrapped up victory on manager Neil Warnock's 69th birthday when Bogle was able to score from close range.
